PARIS SAYS VELVET HANDBAGS}
FROCKS OF ALL-OVER LACE
COMES now another thrill Into the
scheme of summer accessories,
i>oth beautiful and fashionable—the
velvet hand bag. These chic envelope
purses and hand hugs, styled of velvet
In all-black pr In enchanting pastel
ihades, lend an entrancing note to the
midsummer costume.
It was a stroke of genius on the
part of an artist-born creator of things
lovely, who one day in Paris set the
fashion of eitrrying a black velvet
hand bag with the summer beflowered
ed for, this almost unprecedented pop-
ularity of lt.ee, when we rememt>er
that the present-day trend in the fash-
ionable world Is frankly toward s
more feminine styling than has ex
isted for many a season. So there wc
have it—lace nnd the eternal feminine
—which Is ever and for all time >
truism of the mode.
Between many laces, choose the love-
liest, this Is the complex confronting
fashion's followers today. It requires
a fine gift of discrimination to be abla

A MESSAGE FROM PARIS
frocTc. And now there Is every prom-
ise of a hue and clamor for velvet
hand bags throughout the fashion cen-
ters of the world—and the vogue Is
only at Its beginning.
Elegance Is the keynote to the vel-
vet bag which has become a part of
the summer ensemble. en-
velope purses and hand bags nre 100
per cent exquisite even unto the slight-
est detnil of their finely wrought
metal finishings. And their linings!
To see within one of these soft-shirred
baps is like looking Into the heart of a
flower so dainty Is Its colorings and
all thait goes toward achieving.) an
esthetic effect
The vogue for matching the bag to
some detail of the costume and espe-
cially to millinery Is charmingly Inter-
preted with velvet as the medium.
With the sheer midsummer frock
there Is nothing prettier than the pic-
turesque pastel-colored crln capelines
bonded with velvet ribbon of the same
to select one from among a galaxy of
lace gowns, each of which seems pret-
tier than the other. There are the
modish all-black lace transparencies
which pose so alluringly over pink
silken slips, competing with delicate
beige lace frocks, filmy as a fleeting
summer cloud, and—glory of lace
glories—those pofitel-tlnted lace
gowns, which haVe just recently en-
tered the list.
The fashioning of the lace gown Is
about' as varied as are the types of
lace from which to choose. A model
which Is as practical as It is charm-
ing, follows the redingote silhouette.
The beauty of this version of the lace
dress is that it can be worn over any
colored slip, being detachable and an
entirely separate proposition. See the
wlnsomeness of this style In the pic-
ture to the right. Such a garment
made of ecru or beige chantilly lace
Is effective over either a self-colored
underfrock or over one of pale pink,

A combination extremely flattering
to the lace or chiffon frock Is that of

accessory sets Include a velvet sleeve-

The Importance of Velvet as a sum-

ing to the prophecy of fashion seers.
Its present -favor Is but a prologue to
the prominent part which it will play
In autumn styles.
The mode Is reveling In lace. It Is

lace-tnimned chiffon frock is of more
alluring appeal than the dr.ess all of

nectlon with this model Is the flowing
sleeve achieved by sewing on a wide
flare of the lace. Skirts which accent
wide lace flouncing as here pictured
nre also In favor with the mode.
In millinery a smart Item Is the felt
hat with Insets of self-colored or con
treating lace. Also the eyebrow veil

DOLLY'S BIRTHDAY
Christmas Time.
Now Dolly's birthday Is an impor-
tant event. Perhaps you nmy think
your blrlhduy is
far more Impor-
tant and of course
It Ib, to you.
But to Dolly
and to Dolly's
family her birth-
day Is most Im-
portant, too—each
one almost more
Important than
the last
It was chilly
weather for Dol-
ly's birthday this
year, so the cele-
bration was held
by the side of the
old fireplace. It
hnd been a long
time since the old fireside had taken
part in a birthday celebration.
Many other fireplaces had birthday
celebrations taking place by them, but
not at Dolly's house, for here, almost
always, it was warm weather for ev-
eryone's birthday.
So the old fireplace rejoiccd that It
was to have a birthday celebration
right by Its bright, cheery burning
logs of wood.
It almost seemed as though the old
fireplace Itself should celebrate a
birthday. The old fireplace was very
old, much older than Dolly, much
older than any of the members of tha
family.
It had taken part In many celebra-
tions. It particularly loved Christmas
time when all the family gathered to-
gether and opened their presents after
the chimney had hail a rest so that
Santa Clans could come down It.
So the old fireplace was particularly
delighted that it was going to share In
a new celebration.
The fire had been laid and the match
struck. Then, Ihow the old fireplace
shone and burned and crackled with
laughter and merriment.
Every once in a while you could
hear it sputter in its Joyful amuse-
ment at all that was going on/ It
dressed up in its best Blue colors
and flame colors and all other colors
seemed to flash in It at some time
or other while the celebration was
going on.
And there, by the fireside, sat Dolly,
the Queen of the day, with the family
all gathered around, and the presents
on a table right before Dolly.
The presents were wrapped In gay-
colored ribbons. Many of the ribbons
had been wrapped around other birth-
day packages, for after a fine party,
such as a birthday celebration, the
ribbons (took a rest back In the old
ribbon box to be ready for the next
Joyful event
In the centcr was a cake, and, of
course, upon the cake there were can-
dles. And there were candles and
flowers and a wreath and there were
speeches made and there were Bmiles
—oh, lots and lots of Bmiles.
And the fireplace smiled, too, as it
gazed brightly and warmly out upon
It all.
And while the birthday celebration
was going on and while the poems
were being read and the presents
opened the fireplace sang a little birth-
day song to Dolly and this was it:
I'm the fireplace old and true,
I'm very very fond of you..
Dolly, dear, I think you wnow it,
For you come by me and sit,
And you lllie to linger by me
And In my flames the fairies see
And read my thoughts while I read
yours; r
Dolly, dear, I love you I
I'm the fireplace old and true.
I'm very, very fond of you.
I wish you many
happy returns
As the fire within
me burns,
Telling you of my
warm heart,
In your joy, tak-
ing my part.
So I -sing to you
my greetings,
Dolly, dear, I love
youl
I'm the fireplace
old and true,
I'm very, very fond
of you:
I wish you happl*
ness so great
On this very fa-
mous date;
1 .3ro« ,'ot" Queen of tho Day.
and lots of fun, '
Beginning with the rising sun.
Oh, many happy returns of the day!
Dolly, dear, I love youl

"Wild Boy" Beyond
Reach of Science
The recent discoveries of children
supppsed to have lived their lives
among animals, and who consequently
developed* animal habits, add interest
to the "Peter the Wild Boy" exhibit
at Berkhampstead School museum, al-
though there Is no reason to suppose
Peter was a wolf-child.
Peter was found In 1725 In the
woods near Hameiln, In Hanover,
where he had subsisted on the bark
of trees, .leaves, and berries for an
unknown period. When found he was
apparently about twelve years old.
A year later lie was brought to
England, but even under skillful tui-
tion he was incapable of receiving any
Instruction nnd never developed the
faculty of speech.
He died in 1785, at Axter*s End
farm at North Cross, where he lived
since his arrivul in England, and on a
